Journeys

The project's journeys: the order people see them in and which ones are switched on.

Journeys screen with the search box, the Active and Inactive filters and the list of journeys with priority, name, description and status

What it is for#

This is where you create and order the project's journeys: the path that action groups are gathered into. What gets decided here is the order people see them in, and which ones are switched on.

A journey does not hold actions directly: actions belong to a group, and the group to a journey. Groups are assigned to their journey from Action Groups.

Where it is: Manage › Journeys › Journeys.

Things to know#

Aviso:

Saving from this form deletes the journey's picture, if it had one. The form itself warns about it when editing: the screen cannot preserve it and it is logged as a defect. If your journey has a picture, do not edit it here until this is fixed.

  • Priority sorts as text. "10" comes before "2"; use letters or zero-pad.
  • There is no delete here. To retire a journey, deactivate it.
  • The Spanish name is the required one, but if some people use the app in English, fill in the English one too.
